2. D. If following the steps in the book, the first step removes up to three leading 0s in each quartet, leaving FE80:0:0:100:0:0:0:123. This leaves two strings of consecutive all-0 quartets; by changing the longest string of all 0s to ::, the address is FE80:0:0:100::123.
3. B. This question has many quartets that make it easy to make a common mistake: removing trailing 0s in a quartet of hex digits.
